I Want to Be the King of Football

In the thirty-fourth round of the Premier League, Manchester City played away to Blackburn.

The violence of the weekly game was originally against Manchester City, which was fighting on multiple fronts, and it was a home game. The game was played extremely fiercely from the beginning.

Manchester City encountered the devil's schedule, first with a 1-1 home draw with Braga in the Europa League, advancing 4-1 on aggregate, and then a 2-0 victory over Arsenal, just three days ago at home to Tottenham. Tottenham, with Su Dong's header at the last minute of the game, narrowly defeated the north London powerhouse 1-0.

Now, at Blackburn's Ewood Park, Violence wasn't about to show mercy.

It's not that there is any grudge between the two sides, but because Blackburn is now facing a relegation crisis.

When Manchester City was formulating its strategy, Blackburn was ranked 13th, and the pressure of relegation could not be said to be completely absent, but it was really not that big, so at that time, everyone at Manchester City felt that it would not be too difficult to challenge Blackburn away.

But it is not as good as heaven. Blackburn has dropped to the 16th place in the last three rounds, one draw and two losses, and it is only two points away from Blackpool in the relegation zone. This is already very dangerous.

It is precisely because of this that Blackburn took out all their belongings in the home game against Manchester City and tried to fight with Manchester City, and after Manchester City happened to fight on multiple lines in a row, the players' state and body were quite exhausted, which led to the match against Manchester City. In Blackburn's game, the performance was quite sluggish.

With the exception of David Silva, the entire Manchester City team was sluggish.

Guardiola finally couldn't help it. In the 70th minute, Dzeko was replaced and Sudong was replaced.

…………

…………

The famous Liverpool legend Dalglish has a saying that the fatigue of the players is more from the psychology.

This is not necessarily unreasonable, but when a player is used to the winter break, suddenly comes to a league without a winter break, and fights on multiple fronts for a long time, after a few months of hard fighting, the accumulated physical exhaustion is an outsider. unbelievable.

Whether it's facing Tottenham or Blackburn tonight, Sudong feels that way.

Especially tonight.

He felt that his brain was turning slower than usual, and his movements couldn't keep up with his head. When he was playing, he always felt a beat slower. Many technical movements that could be done very easily in normal times are now very difficult to play, and even appear mistake.

He believes that he is the same, and the other players must be the same, or even more serious.

It was also April, especially in the recent period, that Su Dong suddenly discovered that there was a really big difference between whether there was a winter break, not only at the physical level, but also at the psychological level.

It's a bit like a corporate expatriate.

Originally, it was agreed that the expatriate will be sent out for one year, open all year round, and return home for reunion during the Spring Festival, and take paid vacations. Unexpectedly, the company suddenly canceled the Spring Festival vacation and told you that you must stay outside for another year, even during the Spring Festival. go home.

Let me ask, what kind of mental state is that in the second year of work?

Su Dong realized this early on and tried his best to overcome it, but he was still affected.

This made him completely unable to play his usual level.

But for such a situation, Su Dong also has his own set of coping strategies.

That is to narrow the scope of his activities, reduce the tasks he undertakes, lie in ambush in the penalty area, and be a full-time scorer.

Passing, advancing, connecting and other things are all left to their teammates to complete.

Guardiola was clearly aware of this when he threw out the David Silva and Moutinho combination.

Blackburn's young centre-back Phil Jones has been very active and is considered a hot-blooded young man.

After Su Dong came on the court, he became even more excited and had a huge range of activities.

This made Su Dong see it, and he had to admire it.

Young is good!

There will always be energy that never ends,

You can be alive anytime, anywhere.

Seeing him, Su Dong couldn't help but think of when he was in Portugal.

In those years, they could fly directly from Lisbon to Madrid in order to watch Ronaldo's game without grabbing a ticket, but they couldn't get in!

In those years, they could hike the Madeira Islands and camp overnight on top of the mountain to watch the stars.

In those years, they trained every day from early morning to late night, as if they would never get tired, and their bodies were iron-clad.

those years……

...

After tonight, I'm going to be famous!

Just as Su Dong recalled his youthful past, Phil Jones said with a smile.

The English teenager played the whole game, his face flushed as if he was drunk, but his expression was extremely excited.

Looking at Su Dong, it was like seeing a stunning beauty.

Why are you famous? Su Dong's mind turned a little slow tonight and didn't turn around.

Because you can't score! Phil Jones laughed.

So far this season, it seems that no team can stop you from scoring, right?

Speaking of this, Phil Jones looked smug.

Confidence, which Su Dong sees from Phil Jones, is a very big advantage of him.

Having a big heart is a must for a professional player.

Vigorous, physical, hardworking, and full of self-confidence, this English teenager is really good!

Aren't you running a little bit now? Phil Jones asked with a grin.

Su Dong smiled. This kid has just started playing football, and he is learning how to harass his opponent. Who taught him?

Boy, focus on playing your ball, there's a lot of nonsense, no one told you that focus is a must for a defender?

Phil Jones was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect Su Dong to train people.

I'm very focused! Blackburn's central defender replied stubbornly.

Then keep your eyes on me, I will disappear from you at any time. Su Dong bluffed.

Phil Jones was stunned, How about you lie to a three-year-old?

Yes, I'm lying to you!

Lied to me?

Holy crap, are you saying that I'm a three-year-old?

As soon as Phil Jones reacted, he saw that Su Dong really disappeared in front of his eyes.

The disappearance here must be in quotation marks, because he did not really disappear, but when Phil Jones was in a trance for a second or two, Su Dong suddenly left his position, so that Phil Jones could not find anyone. .

By the time the Blackburn central defender turned around to find Su Dong, Su Dong had already rushed forward from behind him and raised his hand for the ball.

...

On the left side of the front of the penalty area, David Silva received a return pass from Di Maria. Just after adjusting, he glanced at the penalty area and saw Su Dong pointing forward, and immediately sent an oblique pass with his left foot.

The ball went over the heads of all defenders in the penalty area and fell to the front of the upright on the right side of the goal.

Su Dong, who was originally standing in front of Phil Jones, suddenly circled behind Phil Jones and quickly started to charge forward.

Phil Jones, who was in charge of marking him, was obviously distracted and couldn't find anyone in a panic.

And Su Dong rushed forward, at the front of the small penalty area, facing David Silva's diagonal pass, headed the ball into a near corner.

The ball rubbed the right post and got into Blackburn's goal.

GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!

Su Dong! It's Su Dong again!!!!

It's still a lore at a critical moment!

This is already Sudong's three consecutive games, and he has contributed a must-win goal for Manchester City!

Especially in the last two games, first, the lore of Tottenham Hotspur in the final stage of the game, and now, in the 82nd minute, the goal is to lore Blackburn Rovers. Su Dong played a key role in Manchester City!

Phil Jones was a little stunned, watching Su Dong cheering past him, he felt like he was being tricked.

Yes, I'm lying to you!

Phil Jones hadn't reacted just now, but now he suddenly thinks, Nima, isn't this just a pun?

He really felt like he was being played by Su Dong.

Originally, he wanted to use some words to stimulate Su Dong, and by the way, he snorted. After all, being able to sneer in front of Su Dong was something he was proud of in his career.

But who would have thought that Su Dong, in turn, used his thoughts to make his mistakes and score a goal.

Really stealing chicken without losing rice.

…………

…………

In the end, Manchester City defeated Blackburn 1-0 with a goal after Su Dong came off the bench.

Although he failed to snipe Manchester City at home, Violent Ben coach Steven Keane was still satisfied with the result of the game, believing that Blackburn could cause a lot of trouble for Manchester City, sticking to the final stage of the game, losing only one goal. , which is already a victory in itself.

The implication is that at least we didn't lose 9-1 or 7-0 at home like some teams do, we only have one goal, how amazing!

The media reporters at the press conference all smirked when they heard it. Obviously, they have already thought about it. How to make good use of the meaning of this sentence and expand the attack surface, it is best to pull both Ferguson and Wenger into the water. , that would be fun.

For teenager Phil Jones, Stephen Keane is still very satisfied.

Although it was his mistakes that led to the conceded goal, being able to hold Dzeko and hold on to Sudong for the most part, Phil Jones' performance was already very rare in itself.

You know, he's only nineteen!

England has no shortage of talents, but Phil Jones is one of those players who can see talent at a glance.

And with his outstanding performance, he has also been favored by Manchester United coach Ferguson and Arsenal coach Wenger. It has been reported before that Manchester United and the Gunners are interested in poaching him.

As for Manchester City, Guardiola isn't too fond of this type of defender.

For the back line, he prefers to use full-backs like Marcelo, and central defenders like Pepe and David Luiz who can hold the ball and pass the ball.

Phil Jones is the quintessential English centre-back, not great in that regard.

However, in an interview with the media, Su Dong spoke highly of the teenager's performance, believing that Phil Jones will become a rising star in the Premier League with time.

The outside media also basically agree with Su Dong's judgment. After all, the British media's standard for treating local players is always relatively low.
